JEWELRY SHOPPING TODAY AND MORE

Today we went to a pearl wholesale store and a jade wholesale store. At the pearl store, we bought some jewelry for Lexi when she gets older. At the jade store, the boys bought a couple of small dragons.

After that shopping, we had Pizza Hut pizza at the hotel. Erika, Jared, and Kelly went to the pool for a little swimming. We took a trip out to buy dinner and some baby stuff (formula, diapers, etc.)

I have posted some of the pictures that we took yesterday at church.

LUNCH AFTER GROUP PHOTO

A couple more pictures from the group photo... Then we ate lunch... I am attaching some of our options.

GROUP PHOTO DAY

Today was group photo day. Dress all of the little ones up in pretty chinese clothing and get everyone together for a beautiful picture. Explain it to the children once and they understand that if they sit still and smile for just a minute or two, that the picture time will be over. OR at least that is how it is suppose to go. Normally, half of the kids are crying, scared, etc. :) That is ok. We still get lots of neat pictures of the group. Here are some of them.

AFTER DOCTOR VISIT

Some pictures from lunch.

MORE PHOTOS FROM DOCTOR VISIT

We found the small camera. So, now I can put up a couple of pictures from the doctor visit.

One of the pictures is of FuNi (this was the little girl we applied for from special needs. It was neat to see her (in our travel group) with her new family. Three of the pictures show Lexi during the doctor visit. The last picture shows Lexi right after the visit... She was tired.

PICTURES FROM LAST COUPLE DAYS

Here are some pictures specifically from the Pavillian... I can't find the camera that we used at the doctor's office today. Hopefully I will in the morning.

IT IS SATURDAY AFTERNOON IN GAUNGZHOU

Sorry for missing a day... the last three days have been pretty busy and it appears that we are a down down. Oh well... here is the latest...

On Thursday, We were still in Nanchang and did a tour of another neat pavillion. Very pretty place with neat history. On Friday, we "just" flew from Nanchang to Gaungzhou. About an hour and a half flight. All of the kids did pretty good. Everything went well.

Today, we went to Shamain Island (sp). Here Lexi had her doctor appointment. She also got her picture taken for her Visa. We did a little bit of shopping... In a couple of minutes, I need to fill out more paperwork. I will upload picture later tonight.
